Trade mark protection essential for business

Cream Holdings understands that to protect the value of its brands it needs to be vigilant in ensuring trade mark protection. At Mewburn Ellis we have helped them actively police their brands. We regularly take appropriate action against third parties who adopt similar branding in their sector. In recent months successful actions were brought against third parties in South Korea, Turkey and Romania.
